DEDPDC’s Community Learning Centre (CLC) classes are an important extension of the work we do here at DEPDC/GMS. These classes allow us to target a larger population of community members who are in need and want of education and awareness. CLC was created in 2005 as a way to provide human rights education, computer, literacy, and life skills training in both Thai and English. These classes are open to everyone and serve those who are at-risk of being trafficked; undocumented migrants, refugees, ethnic minorities, and other community members living in the Mae Sai area.
This is why we are sad to report that last semester we were unable to hold CLC classes. The teacher’s husband had an unfortunate accident that required her support of care and assistance. Because of the loss of the teacher we were unable to open classes. Classes will resume this next semester. All students and parents of the CLC eagerly await the opportunity to continue studying and learning and we are eager to continue the work of education and outreach.
On behalf of all of the students at CLC, DEPDC/GMS would like to humbly thank you for your generous support. Your kind donations are proof in the belief that everyone – no matter their age, gender, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, citizenship, religion, or skill level – has the right to learn, thrive, and grow!
